Re: Keene IR Amp



I can confirm my Xantech system has difficulties with TiVo, the
double button press story sounds very familiar.  On everythin else,
the Xantech works 100%.

I've always put this unreliability (and consequent lack of WAF) down
to my Xantech receivers are all of the filtered type, to remove neon
noise, rather than the straighforward ones.  Seems that isnt the case.

One thing I have noticed is that it all works better when the TiVo
remote is pointed at  wall, rather than at the receiver, so there may
be an issue with the level of IR gettig blasted at TiVo (I have a
stick-on emitter right over the TiVo window)
